Really nice resto and modification! That's a lot of work, but man it really looks cool!

I really don't have the room for it either. But it was in need of help and I knew I sure could not hurt it. These were not really much more than light duty cabinets made for automotive tune up gear and some lightweight stuff but they looked cool. Hard to believe how bad this one was...

$30 CL ad said old garage cabinet. Well it was really sad. One of those cool old promoTune Up Cabinets like United Delco. It was missing handles and drawers, had a hole punched in the side and had been painted over twice. Saving the original stuff was impossible so I decided to make it look...
